Valentine's Day


Grouping similar things seems to be a natural human tendency. Perhaps it comes from preschool activities, or some other form of subconscious childhood training. This tendency holds true in the ER. That's why last year, on valentine's day, the triage nurse put all the men who were stabbed in the chest by their significant others next to each other. The comradery among the 3 men in the trauma bay swapping girlfriend-with-a-cleaver stories was an uplifting moment during a night-long holiday shift.
